Dears,

All my clients connected on both of servers by used Remote Desktop sessions ,5 months since.
Currently,when the clients is connected on the both of servers they received the following error:

Hi,
Please let us know if you have purchased RDS CALs and install it in your RD licensing server.
Also, on RD Session host servers, please make sure that you have specified the license mode and point them to the RD licensing server.

We are using Windows Server 2012 Standard installed in VMWare / Virtual machine and to access this we use vSphere client and Remote Desktop Connection / service was already enabled and was working fine with User PCs / laptops remote desktop into the server
2012, until it gave an error message of: Remote session was disconnected because there are no remote desktop license servers available to provide a license. Please contact the server administrator. whilst logging into the server.
We DON'T use Active Directory nor and we don't use domain and not looking to use it any-time soon.
I checked the RD Licensing Diagnoser and it says the grace period has expired and the licensing mode for the remote desktop session host server is not configured. I have checked the Remote Desktop Gateway has been stopped and I tried to start it and it
resumed to stop, here I assume its where the licensing part comes in to re-enabled this.
I have been trying to follow these articles online: http://ryanmangansitblog.com/2013/03/27/deploying-remote-desktop-gateway-rds-2012/ and http://www.concurrency.com/blog/rds8-add-a-licensing-server-2/#Install the overview part that I cannot get into,
because I think we have to be is AD DS for this which we don't. Is there a way around this for non domain / just standalone set-up? Is it a must / requirement we need to be in a domain in order for Remote Desktop Connection to work?
Also, we have a Windows Server 2012 RDS CALs - 10 (software and licence key), will the licence key work for the Windows 2012 Server Standard? We do not want to install the other Server mentioned which comes with CAL / licence key as its time consuming
to reinstall other programs. I have installed Server role service of Remote Desktop Licencing and automatically installed other associated services needed. in the RD Licencing Manager, the Server had a red cross and I "Activate Server"
where I followed: http://www.concurrency.com/blog/rds8-add-a-licensing-server-2/#Install in Install Licences section and I have used the licence key of CAL - 10 mentioned above; it stated I have successfully completed the install licences wizard and displayed:
10 Windows Server 2012 - RDS Per User CAL installed, and in the RD Licensing Manager the server turned into a green tick and added the licence.
I then tested the Remote desktop connection from my PC and the same error message was there and checked the RD Licensing Diagnoser and the same error messages was there. I haven't restart the services of Remote Gateway / the server itself; do I really
need to reboot server?
Any advice / guidance would be very much appreciated and this is a urgent matter.
Thank you for your time.Hotfix Released here:

I am the Server Administrator and have server 2012 Standard running on a single computer for our small (50 employee) company. It's primary role is to house one software application that manages our data. Our employees need to remotely access this
server to use this software program. For the last 4 months we have successfully done that using Remote Desktop.
Unfortunately our RDS trial period ran out on our Server, and so I have recently installed 21 RDS User CALs on to the server to still be able to access this server remotely. When I installed them, using the Install Wizard, I selected 'User CALs' as that
is what they are. However, when I try to use remote desktop and access the server remotely, I get the message: "remote session was disconnected because there are no remote desktop license servers available to provide a license"
Do I have to install the RDS User CALs as Device CALs instead even though they are USER CALs?? Did I forget to check a box or something? Please help! We are a Non-Profit and really can't afford Microsoft's $260 support fee when I have a feeling
this has got to be an easy solution.Hi,
1. Did you create an RDS deployment or just install the RD Session Host and RD Licensing Role Services on your server?
2. If yes to #1, have you set the licensing mode and licensing server name in Server Manager -- RDS -- Overview -- Tasks -- Edit Deployment Properties -- RD Licensing tab? Did you make your RDSH server part of a collection? The RDSH server must
be part of a collection in order for the deployment settings to apply.
3. If no to #1, then please set the licensing mode/specify the licensing server name via group policy setting. For example, you could use gpedit.msc and configure the following settings:
Computer Configuration\ Administrative Templates\ Windows Components\ Remote Desktop Services\ Remote Desktop Session Host\ Licensing
Use the specified Remote Desktop licensing servers
Set the Remote Desktop licensing mode
Thanks.

Hi,
I am getting this error from windows server : remote session was disconnected because there are no remote desktop licence servers available to provide a licence. Please contact the server administrator.
Remote desktop Session Host Server Configuration Details:
The RD licensing Diagnoser(WIN-909xxxxxxxxxxx):
Number of license available for clients : 0
Remote Desktop Session Host server version: Windows server 2012 R2
Active Directory Domain : Not applicable
Licensing mode : Not configured
Now, Down I am getting this error as well shown by the system:
RD licensing Diagnoser Information- 2 errors:
Win-909xxxxxxxxxx : licensing mode for the Remode Desktop Session Host Server is not configured.
Win-909xxxxxxxxxx : The grace period for the Remote Desktop Session Host server has Expired, but the RD Session Host server has not been configured with any license servers. connections to the RD Session Host server will be denied
unless a license server is configured for the RD Session Host server.
Now my kestion is :
Do I need to buy a license key of the windows server to not getting this error or it may continue appear even if I purchased the license and not configure RDS and AD.
Do I need to configured only RDS and AD and buy the license key of windows server later because I still have 55 day of trial.
Do I just buy the RDS client access license (L).
Please could you help on this, am new in windows server?Hi,
As the message indicates, the grace period for the Remote Desktop Session Host server has Expired, you need to purchase and install RDS CALs. Also, you need to configure related settings
to continue using Remote Desktop Services. Otherwise, you cannot connect to the server remotely.

I recently installed 21 Remote Desktop Services (RDS) User CALs on my Server 2012 standard computer. It was an Open License donation from Microsoft as we are a non-profit. After installing them successfully (I installed them as USER and not DEVICE)
the warning message that my "remote desktop services will expire in 63 days" message no longer appears :) however, I can no longer connect to our server remotely. Our staff needs to access a single data management program on a daily basis and
that program is housed on our server computer.
I know that the solution to this is probably easy (like checking a box or installing a component). Can you please help? Why would we have been able to access the server remotely before the install of RDS User CALs and not after?
Thank you for your time and help in this regard.Hi,
Thank you for your posting in Windows Server Forum.
First of all the user which you want to provide access for remote session must be member of “Remote Desktop User” local group.
In regards to your error it seems that your RDS license server not able to locate the license server properly and licensing mode not configured properly. To resolve this issue you can try to change the Licensing mode or need to call the MS clearing house to
reactivate the license server in a correct mode. You must have all the license paper and all related document on hand and then call clearing house, explain them your issue and they will help you to reactivate it.
Please check beneath article for additional details.

Hi,
I have been using Windows server 2012 at my company and generally take a remote access to this server. However, since last few days, I have been receiving the Error "The remote connection was disconnected because there are no Remote Desktop License
Servers available to provide a license. Please contact the server administrator".
My entire work has come to a halt because of this error as all my applications are running this server and their remote access is needed for my regular requirements.
I had tried one of the solutions proposed at one of these forums especially using gpedit.msc but to no avail.
Regards,
AdityaHi Aditya,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Agree with the words of armin, please verify that you have properly installed correctly. Verify RDS Licensing service running on License Server. Verify that the client, the RDS server, and the license server can communicate by ensuring that Domain Name System
(DNS) is configured correctly on each computer. You can run the ping command from each computer to each computer using the IP address, FQDN, and the NetBIOS name. If any of the ping commands fail, verify the DNS configuration on the network.
In addition, you can also try “GracePeriod” registry setting on this path (HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\RCM) from
this article.
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

After a Installation from Windows 8.1/windows 7 everything works fine. For example Install updates and Software. If I connect the first time a remotefx card i can use RDP as well. But if i restart the host I get the mentioned error. What can I do. These
Hosts are not in a domain configuration. I tried it too but there was no difference. I didn't discovered any errors in the eventlog, too. Only an actviex error. But same errors occurs with a succsefull rdp session.
Also strange is if i start the vm without a remotefx card it works fine again. Only session with a Remotefx card aren't possible anymore.
Is there a bug or something. I tried it many times with the same error.
Maybe someone can help me.
kind regards
TobiHi Tobi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
For a workaround, please try to perform the two steps.
1. Do NOT enable RDP 8 on the Windows 7 SP1 VM. You should install RDP 8 and update the ICs though.
2. Change the connection setting on the client from "Automatically detect" to "LAN"
Please check again below thread for information.
a. "The remote session was disconnected
because there were network problems during the licensing protocol" after enabling RemoteFX Windows 8 VM
(Please recheck answer by “dgeddes”)
b. "The remote session
was disconnected because there were network problems during the licensing protocol" After Installing RemoteFX
Hope it helps!

Get message "loaded with errors on the target and was closed" but there are no errors in the vi.
Hi,
Attached image shows the error message which i receive when I try to run my vi. "vi loaded with errors on the target and was closed"
The vi has no errors as far as I can see and hasn't changed since I ran it a few days ago and it functioned fine. other vi's in the project run without any issue.
Any guidance to find the issue would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Conor
Attachments:
Labview error.JPG 43 KBSome tips:
1. Try to recompile the VI which is "loaded broken" (ctrl+click on Run arrow). Deploy.
2. Try to recompile this VI and its dependencies (ctrl+shift+click on Run arrow). Deploy.
3. Try to recompile top-level VI and its dependencies. Deploy.
4. Change something in "loaded broken" VI (add some code, like reversing array back and forth, just to make LV recompile it). Deploy.
5. Close the project. Restart RIO. Open project. Deploy.
6. Close LabVIEW. Restart computer. Restart RIO. Open project. Deploy.
7. Take another computer. Deploy from it.
8. Close project. Clear compiled object cache (menu Tools -> Advanced -> Clear compiled object cache...). Open project. Wait until LV will open/recompile it. Deploy.
9. Do as 7, but in the meantime reformat RIO from MAX. Open project. Deploy.
10. Contact NI Support. Send them your project. Make them Deploy it.
The fun starts when you have project which deploys for 30 minutes... Usually I skip straight to step 8 then, and usually it helps. -
After installing Windows Server 2008 DATA CENTER stuck on blank screen and command prompt window
After a new fresh install of Windows Server 2008 Data Center I get this solid blue screen with a comand prompt window showing (user\Administrator) I have limited use of the commands, am able to bring up the task manager by CTL Del and perform limited functions. I was able to run the same software on this machine before, nothing has changed. The way I ran the software on it before was from an image I deployed to it,(not from a fresh install). The old image timed out and I could not rearm it, that is why I did a fresh install. I tried to use gpedit.msc but the command did not work.
You may be using Windows with limited functionality as the previous version expired. Did you re-format the drive/partition before you did the "fresh" install if not Windows probably kept the old install information so knew that it was expired previously. Either activate Windows (try typing slui.exe and filling in the product key and activate - then restart the machine) or re-format the drive/partition that Windows is on and re-install Windows again.

Cannot install SQL Server Native Client 2012 on Windows Server 2008 Data Center
Is it possible to install SQL Server Native Client 11.0 (SQL Server 2012) on Windows Server 2008 Datacenter?
I tried to install it, but I get this error message:
"Installation of this product failed because it is not supported on this operating system. For information on supported configurations, see the product documentation."
Based on this article (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc280356.aspx), I see one of the supported operating system is Windows Server 2008.Hello,
Can you try to download and install Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2 from the following link, and then reinstall the SQL Server Native Client 11.0 again?
http://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=16468
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Native Client is included in the SQL Server 2012 Feature Pack. Based on the requirement of
the download page , you should apply SP2 for Windows Server 2008.

Windows Server 2012: SMB share with transparent failover
Have a nice day to all!
I have 2 HP Proliant DL380P Gen8 servers containing 8 x 1TB disks (with P420i HP Smart Array RAID Controller) in each server.
So, there are 2 arrays on every server:
1. 2 x 1TB in RAID1 (+1 disk for hot swap) - system volume
2. 5 x 1TB in RAID5 (+1 disk for hot swap) - data volume
And I installed Windows Server 2012 Standard on each server.
Than I created a failover two-nodes cluster.
And now I want to create a SMB share with transparent failover for all the second (data) volume (it's about 3.3TB in RAID5 array). How just can I reach this goal? I'm going to use it in future for Hyper-V VMs, so, the main reqirement is powered-on and working
VMs even if one node of SMB share cluster is failed.
I wasn't able to see my volumes in failover cluster manager. I tried to create iSCSI targets, storage pools, virtual disks, etc. but no luck. My failover cluster manager can't see it to create SMB share!
Can anyone advice me something?
Thanks in advance!Have a nice day to all!

You need to have your storage you want to export as being a shared storage visible to your cluster (part of CSV). Then you'll configure failover file shares using content accessible from both cluster nodes. Refer to this manual for diagrams (ignore StarWind
and replace it logically with your existing shared storage you've used to create your cluster):
http://www.starwindsoftware.com/configuring-ha-file-server-on-windows-server-2012-for-smb-nas
Also see these manuals from MS on how to create failover file server:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc753969.aspx
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc731844(v=ws.10).aspx
http://blogs.technet.com/b/askcore/archive/2010/08/19/working-with-file-shares-in-windows-server-2008-r2-failover-clusters.aspx
However if you want to use existing storage located on the both nodes you're out of luck. Microsoft does not provide anything representing local DAS to the cluster nodes. If you want to use existing DAS then you'll have to stick with a third-party product
like StarWind, SteelEye or DataCore. To create something like in this picture:
So you'll have a configuration with only two nodes, no physical shared hardware (SAS JBOD, FC or iSCSI) and vSAN. Refer to this manual:

SSRS 2012 - Windows Server 2012 R2 issue with OLEDB Connection String

According to your description, when you use csv file as data source in SSRS 2012 report, you got the error message.
I tested the issue in my local machine, due to some policy restrictions, I could not install Access in my local machine. To workaround the issue, we can use the connection string like below:
Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\\report;
Extended Properties="text;HDR=Yes;FMT=Delimited"
The csv file is stored in report folder in C driver.
In Query text box in the dataset, we can use the query like below:
Select * from new.csv
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.
